Secret 7, Somerset House April '15
I stumbled across this exhibition while at Somerset House & really glad I did. Secret 7" is an annual event that selects 7 tracks from 7 well-known, often iconic Musicians & presses each of these tracks 100 times on to 7" vinyl. Creatives are then invited to create the sleeve artwork, then the 700 sleeves are sold to admirers at the exhibition for £50.00, with the secret being that they don't know who the Artist/Designer of the artwork is until they make the purchase. In the past Artist/Designers have included Paul Smith, Peter Blake, Gilbert & George & Yoko Ono so who knows you might purchase a little real little treasure by one of the greats...regardless you buy it without pretence, so it's all about the art! Have a sneaky suspicion that middle bottom one might be McQ by McQueen as the oil & flower combo was used in their SS15 collection. Proceeds go towards an annually nominated charity, this year's being the music therapy charity Nordoff Robbins. Exhibition runs until 3rd May '15 so get your skates on. Fantastic concept & exhibition, check out some of my picks below:
